RIOT GRRLS!

Bikini Kill

Bikini Kill is an influential band in the riot girls (riot grrrls) scene. Members of the band are Kathleen Hanna, Tobi Vail, Kathi Wilcox and Billy Carren.

Originally from Olympia, they have released four albums and several singles and compilations. Their lyrics are aggressive, Kathleen's voice is loud and expressive, transmitting all the rage of their words.

Songs touch several issues such as strange relationships (Suck my left one), domestic violence and feminism (Double dare ya)...

Their most popular song is probably Rebel Girl, an explicit manifesto of riot girls' ideals.

Rebel Girl

You Are The Queen Of My World

That girl thinks shes the queen of the neighborhood
Shes got the hottest trike in town
That girl she holds her head up so high
I think I wanna be her bestfriend

Rebel girl, rebel girl
Rebel girl you are the queen of my world
Rebel girl, rebel girl
I think I wanna take you home
I wanna try on your clothes too

When she talks, the revolutions coming
In her hips, theres revolution
When she talks, I hear the revolution
In her kiss, I taste the revolution

Rebel girl...

That girl thinks shes the queen of the neighborhood
I got news for you, she is!
They say shes a s**t, but I know
She is my bestfriend yeah!

I really like you,
I really wanna be your bestfriend
Please be my rebel girl
